Theoretical investigation of acoustic field in a tellurium two-coordinate deflector was carried out. We used angular spectrum method supported by consideration to boundary conditions in approximation of a given displacement to calculate spatial distribution of the acoustic field intensity. Volumetric illustration is presented for the acoustic beam launched from YZ face of the crystal. Cross-sections of the acoustic field generated from XZ face are also presented in the work. It is shown that the strong anisotropy of acoustic properties in the Te crystal leads to principally different structure of the two fields excited from the XZ and YZ crystal faces. The acoustic field excited from the XZ face may be considered as a simple beam with a relatively high divergence. On the other hand, the field generated from the YZ face looks like superposition of two beams with relatively low divergence. Ratio of intensities of the two beams generated by longitudinal piezotransducers is equal to the ratio predicted by analysis based by plane-wave theory.

We propose a novel method to calculate acousto-optic figure of merit in crystals. Calculations are performed in laboratory coordinate system where Z'-axis is collinear with wave vector of ultrasound and the Fresnel equation is considered as an equation on the third component of refractive index vector. The method is applicable to both uniaxial and biaxial crystals. In this paper, we compared obtained values of acousto-optic figure of merit with values from literature data for uniaxial crystals such as paratellurite, lithium niobate, tellurium and for biaxial crystals such as lead and strontium tetraborates. Calculations in paratellurite were carried out for slow-shear acoustic wave propagating along [110] crystal axis. In lithium niobate crystal, we perform comparison with results for geometry of acousto-optic interaction where acoustic wave vector forms 88° angle with X crystal axis and 150.4° angle with Z crystal axis. In tellurium crystal, we investigate geometries applied in infrared deflectors. In SrB_4O_7 and PbB_4O_7 crystals we analyze acousto-optic characteristics of slow-shear mode propagating along [100] crystal axis. Spatial distributions of acousto-optic figure of merit and acoustic frequency for the mentioned acousto-optic interaction geometries are presented.

In studying characteristics of quasi-collinear acousto-optic tunable filters, we observed a new effect not explained by existing theories. As found, at high levels of driving power corresponding to high diffraction efficiency, a transition of energy from a diffracted light beam to a non-diffracted one vanished. In addition, the increase of the acoustic power was accompanied by a significant broadening of the filter frequency bandwidth. This effect could not be described in terms of the traditional consideration of acousto-optic diffraction based on a plane wave approximation and a model of a homogeneous acoustic column. The goal of this research was to develop a mathematical model capable of a correct description of the new effects. The paper examines a case of the quasi-collinear acousto-optic diffraction taking into account the two-dimensional spatial structure of the acoustic field. We gave a theoretical description of the effect of diffracted light beam intensity saturation at high level of acoustic driving power. It was shown that this effect was caused by the diffraction distortion of the acoustic field phase fronts in the plane of the acousto-optic interaction.
